My future life partner and I in 1961.
We were young and very much in love,(not that you could guess by looking at us)
but it was two years before we married and I was away for most of it.
Three children and forty-five years later, only our appearance has changed, but
neither of us notice.
I came to writing through a love of reading and a bush upbringing that encouraged
storytelling. My father could recite poetry by the hour, just for the enjoyment of it,
and made up stirring tales of fabulous adventures for a child who lived every
moment of them. He had a wicked sense of humor and every word had to be
weighed very carefully lest it tempt you to an injudicious response, but he never
laughed at you. It was always with you -- a very rare talent and one I wish I'd
inherited.
I hope you enjoy my stories. I enjoyed writing them.
